The
weather was much like yesterday, a bit cool, but beautiful. The
creek was placid and glittered with reflections. The "fried
egg" daffodils opened and one of the money plants began
blooming. There was one flower on the chionodoxa.
Violets were full of blue, white, and in-between flowers. Their
relatives, field pansies, colored many lawns.
We had an arborist and crew prune limbs that overhung the pool and contributed detritus - leaves, berries, and acorn shrapnel. It opened up views more than I expected. Hopefully nothing was nesting yet.
White throats began their foraging early. Myrtle warblers defended their food supply. The downy woodpeckers were still frustrated by my moving the suet. Turtles basked on their logs in the lake. An egret patrolled below the dam at low tide. And the tide was quite low due to the advent of a new moon.
